    Its a really minor thing I know, but I discovered how easy it is to change the windscreen wipers on the Defender, using the combined arm and blade kits you buy. Just click the old one off and click the new one on. Easier than I had realised once I deciphered the diagram on the back of the packet (I'm a bit visually challenged). I'm sure most of you already knew that, but I hadn't realised, so there you go....

    A massive drop in cubby box, hand brake and floor temps

    Probably the cheapest & best thing i have done
    That exhaust wrap looks good. You say it drops vehicle temperature. Is it just something you can buy anywhere or LR specific?

    I know, I've had nightmares about that very scenario. After every order I think, 'What if it doesn't turn up?'

    By all means get a Defender. If you get a good one, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

    Took a slow puncture for repair. Bfg 285/75/r16. Guy found a nail and an internal split looking for blow out. Turns out the tyres were made in 2003!

    Bought a new set of bfg 255s

    Got rid of an annoying tapping noise in the 300tdi. After checking all the usual suspects with no joy, took it for a test drive, or should I say thrashing, and problem solved. All I can think of is possibly a sticking valve.
